Hello again All,
Continuing my quest to learn PowerShell I’ve heavily modified the PC Info Script by Trenton Ivey. The original is designed to work over a network and provide information topic by topic. My modification gets all the information at once and where I’ve really expended time and learning is in the formatting of that data. The above link will let you look at the original and compare it with my humble contribution.
To use the script, copy the code below and paste it into Notepad.
Save the file as “CMsPCInfo.ps1” {Note: include the quotes so Notepad doesn’t add the .txt extension.}
To run the program start PowerShell {Included in Win-7 others can download from MS} as Administrator.
Type d:pathCMsPCInfo.ps1 ‘your computer name’
Ex: G:DocsScriptCMsPCInfo ‘Joes-PC’ {enter}
If you forget to add the PC name you will be prompted for it.
If you want the results in a file simply redirect ex:
G:DocsScriptCMsPCInfo ‘Joes-PC’ > G:DocsMyPCInfo.txt {enter}
